Save us from traffic jams due to whitetopping until alternate roads are made available

We, the commuters of Outer Ring Road, Bengaluru have been severely inconvenienced with the white topping work that is being done between Nagawara and KR Puram stretch. It takes us around 1 to 2 hours to cross a few kms, which adds up to the already long commute & traffic jams we need to encounter before we reach our office/home

While we understand that this is done for better road maintenance, we are disappointed at the lack of planning in carrying out the work. The lakhs of vehicular traffic is unscientifically diverted to the service road, where in fact, the service road itself is in pathetic condition

We the citizens of Bengaluru, traveling to/from Whitefield/Hebbal are already reeling under the traffic snarls created by Metro work

We request you to

1. Ensure the service road is made 'pakka' before blocking any stretch of ORR

2. Plan the work such that it is in a phased manner rather than starting 'all work at once'

3. Plan work in shifts (24 hours), so that the completion time is shorter and the commuters aren't 'terribly' inconvenienced
